[edit] Early Minicomics
Zoar's first appearance was in the minicomic "The Magic Stealer", where it is portrayed as He-Man's falcon (similar to Battle Cat being He-Man's tiger). In that first portrayal, Zoar was depicted as a male falcon.
[edit] DC Comics
In the DC Comics miniseries, Zoar was depicted as the Goddess' falcon, calling He-Man when the Goddess (who would later become The Sorceress) needed him, a glimpse of his later TV incarnation.
In the book and record included with the Point Dread and the Talon Fighter playset, Zoar reprises this role. He appears to He-Man with a warning from the Sorceress that Skeletor was headed for Castle Grayskull.
[edit] TV Series
When the TV series began, Zoar was drastically changed to be an alternate form of The Sorceress (making the TV Zoar a female).
[edit] Trivia
Skeletor's bird, Screeech, might have been created as a sort of rival to Zoar.
The toys of both Zoar and Screeech used the same model, with different paint jobs.
